Description
French bulldogs. Pugs. Chihuahuas. They are undeniably cute, and increasingly popular in Australia and around the world. They’re everywhere from the local park, to memes, tee-shirts coffee mugs. Despite these quirky, squishy little faces, these dog breeds often come with a high price tag in terms of their own health and their owner’s wallet.  On this latest episode of  Pocket Money, Kate and Sally welcome Dr. Sarah Zito from the RSPCA to discuss how some of our cutest companions have been bred into dangerous territory. We also discuss what prospective owners for these breeds, and pets, in general, should consider before they welcome a furry friend into their lives.
